A Genie Grants You Only 1 of the Following Wishes. Which Would You Pick? Posted: 07 Oct 2008 07:22 AM CDT We conducted this poll awhile back and I think that we have got pretty interesting results that is worth discussing. Note: There is a poll embedded within this post, please visit the site to participate in this post's poll.I am not entirely surprised that the $100M option won, but I was hoping that it wouldn’t! I guess many believe that money is what makes the world go round. And if you have money, many other problems can be solved. But my question is, what good is so much money if the world around us is caving in? Perhaps we don’t experience the direct effects of war right now or even global warming, but at the rate chaos is spreading, are we sure we will have the freedom to enjoy all that money? Perhaps you would like to share what you voted on and why? |
